Thank you for checking.

It is Marvell PCIe driver for a device without a hot-plug pin routed
to the CPU. The link-down event is detected by the in-tree Xilinx DMA PL
PCIe controller driver (drivers/pci/controller/pcie-xilinx-dma-pl.c).

sysfs exposed BAR resource files are mmap'd directly by a third-party
userspace driver.

Understood. Thank you for the feedback. We will work on a higher level
API proposal and get back.
